Expands material on the second order analysis of compression members and slender columns.

Adds a new chapter on seismic design (Ch.15) in accordance with the latest (1994) UBC (Uniform Building Code).

Integrates numerous flowcharts throughout to enhance clarity and help students visually grasp topics covered.

Includes graphic pictures of member failure tests so students can actually see what happens at failure.
